    Its 2020 and i still watch this, i used this version to guide me for a school play (spoiler: i didnt get the role) well back then my voice was a bit little i know that its ridiculous for me to do but thats not the point, this cover has place in my heart now :).

    I like no I love the fact that he made the song his own! So many other versions I've heard on KZread they try to match the original. you got to make it your own and everybody said he's slayed I agree with all of you that man slayed it!

    I discovered your cover in 2017 and I am still listening to it right now. The first time I listen to it, I wasn't even able to understand the lyrics because I am french and I wasn't fluent yet. But today, I am very proud to be able to tell you : You're awesome dude, keep going, it's just amazing !

    I just got into Wicked this past autumn and I'm in awe of the freedom this song represents. I never really thought this could be set in a key that was comfortable for a male voice, but after hearing this, I've even gotten the courage to learn it. Thanks a lot for showing us that it can be done!

    Elphaba, why couldn't you have stayed calm, for once! Instead of flying off the handle! I hope you're happy I hope you're happy now I hope you're happy how you've Hurt your cause forever I hope you think you're clever I hope you're happy I hope you're happy too I hope you're proud how you would Grovel in submission To feed your own ambition So though I can't imagine how I hope you're happy Right now Elphie, listen to me. Just say you're sorry! You can still be with the Wizard What you've worked and waited for You can have all you ever wanted I know But I don't want it No! I can't want it anymore Something has changed within me Something is not the same I'm through with playing by The rules of someone else's game Too late for second-guessing Too late to go back to sleep It's time to trust my instincts Close my eyes And leap It's time to try defying gravity I think I'll try defying gravity And you can't pull me down Can't I make you understand You're having delusions of grandeur? I'm through accepting limits 'Cause someone says they're so Some things I cannot change But till I try I'll never know Too long I've been afraid of Losing love, I guess I've lost Well if that's love It comes at much too high a cost I'd sooner buy defying gravity Kiss me goodbye, I'm defying gravity And you can't pull me down! Glinda, come with me. Think of what we could do together! Unlimited Together we're unlimited Together we'll be the greatest team There's ever been, Glinda! Dreams the way we planned 'em If we work in tandem There's no fight we cannot win Just you and I, defying gravity With you and I defying gravity They'll never bring us down! Well, are you coming? I hope you're happy Now that your choosing this You too I hope it brings you bliss I really hope you get it And you don't live to regret it I hope you're happy in the end I hope you're happy my friend So if you care to find me Look to the Western sky! As someone told me lately Everyone deserves the chance to fly And if I'm flying solo At least I'm flying free To those who ground me Take a message back from me! Tell them how I am defying gravity I'm flying high, defying gravity And soon I'll match them in renown And nobody in all of Oz No wizard that there is or was Is ever gonna bring me down! I hope you're happy Look at her She's wicked Get her! Bring me down! No one mourns the wicked So we got to bring her Ah! Down!

    decent voice. I can appreciate that finally a guy when singing didn't try to actually sing (butcher) like a female. But given that the song is written for a witch in the show, a female part, there's a reason why a female sings it. And there's also a reason why a guy doesn't.

    It's in two different keys. It's been lowered 3 half steps from the original key (I think), and the singer is singing an octave lower.
